Good read, which essentially sums up most of the sentiments in recent threads.

Thanks for reading.

The dynamics of the fights have changed and JMM's style/skill should be favoured. Without being able to bring the same intensity he used to, Pacquiao's opting to box more and is consequently making JMM's job a little bit easier.

Prediction: Similar to the third bout, with JMM getting the nod.

If Marquez doesn't win, the 4th fight was made for no reason...no?

Re: My Pac-JMM 4 Preview & Prediction
 

Fair enough. That is certainly a plausible possibility. Personally, I just do not think the dynamics have changed as much as many perceive. I thought they changed going into the last bout, and what I really discovered is to a much larger extent they mostly stayed the same.

Re: My Pac-JMM 4 Preview & Prediction
 

Do you think Pacquiao will bring the same aggression? Or, preferably a more calculated form of it.

Re: My Pac-JMM 4 Preview & Prediction
 

Marquez is winning this fight. Both officially and unofficially.

Re: My Pac-JMM 4 Preview & Prediction
 

Bottom line - no one has a clue. Any of their styles can win out on the day, their styles are such a great counterpoint to the other, no one in their right mind can call it.

If they both bring their absolute best, I'd lean towards Pacquiao whose offense is unstoppable on his day. But has his day gone? I believe in III we saw the very best of Marquez, I think we also saw a subpar Pacquiao so I have to believe Marquez will perform similarly and Pacquiao will perform better.

So it's Pacquiao for me based on that, but seriously it's a pure guess based on ifs and buts - they're each other's equal in the ring from what we've seen so far...

Re: My Pac-JMM 4 Preview & Prediction
 

Well I think Pacquiao needs to be more selective when turning on his aggression switch, and honestly, I think he is going to have to work around that kind of approach, because I no longer think he has the stamina to tackle things differently.

Re: My Pac-JMM 4 Preview & Prediction
 

Wonder if Marquez will be full of PEDS? He sure has the best expert in the world as his conditioning coach and the best expert in the world on cheating the tests. So, it appears as if Marquez can use as many PEDs as he wants and not get caught. Will the PEDs be the difference?
